A Killer Strikes

Just before Christmas in 1968, a killer targeted a couple out on their first date sitting in a lover's lane. The senseless murder would shock the quiet town of Vallejo, California, and the surrounding areas. What the police and public could not foresee is that these murders would be just the beginning of the infamous saga of a killer that would later become known the world over as the Zodiac. Join Mike Ferguson and Mike Morford as they take deep dive into one of the most fascinating unsolved cases in true crime history. In this premiere episode, we cover the first two attacks. And over the rest of the season, we're going to cover every facet of the case. Subscribe on iTunes or your favorite android app to make sure you don't miss a single episode!
